Answer:

the answer is

166 cm²

Explanation:

we know that

surface area of the prism=2*area of the base+perimeter of the base*height

step 1

find the area of the base

area of the base=length* width

length=5 cm

width=4 cm

area of the base=5*4-----> 20 cm²

step 2

find the perimeter of the base

perimeter=2*[length+width]-----> 2*[5+4]----> 18 cm

step 3

height=7 cm

step 4

find the surface area

surface area of the prism=2*area of the base+perimeter of the base*height

surface area of the prism=2*20+18*7----> 166 cm²
